Brightest London

One day we wake up and think what is this life?
I'm 20 and jobless
This doesn't seem right
I'm good at all the things that won't make me money
I laugh at all the things other people don't find funny
I've had my share of hurting others before
My how I wish I could knock on their door
Hand them two dozen roses and say "how do you do?"
It's Mike Gray from high school and I think you're cool
This world is a setup
We only live once
It's a tough path to stay on
It's a tough path to trust
But if you hear a good melody latch onto that sound
Cause without motivation sanity won't be found

Brightest London's reached by underground
Brightest London's reached by rail
How many people feel that pain?
How many people need that train?

You guessed it
Brightest London is a metaphor
A place where we've all been before
Whether in love, lots of money, or just happy to laugh
Brightest London comes slowly and it leaves you so fast
The key to a great life is making a way
For smiles to be had while you're living day to day
And listening to all those that have something to say
And not saving time by walking away
This world is a setup so we have just one chance
To kill or be killed without dying too fast
There's a way though that I found that works at long last
Going under the feet of the people that it's trapped

Brightest London's reached by underground
Brightest London's reached by rail
How many people feel that pain?
How many people need that train?
